Shawn O'Connor , chief executive officer of Simulations Plus , said : " Our software business continued its strong performance during the quarter , with revenues increasing by 21 % versus last year as product updates and cross - selling initiatives led to an acceleration in growth rates . However , our overall growth rate was moderated due to a higher than normal number of late quarter project delays and drug development program cancellations in our services business , which has historically had periods of volatility . Despite these delays and cancellations , our services pipeline continued to expand , and backlog grew in the quarter . While these trends are encouraging and support our long - term outlook , the delays in services projects will impact the growth rates for the remainder of our fiscal year , and we now expect full - year revenue growth of 5 to 10 % .
